Saw this one last night. Free flick. More than worth the price of waiting in line for passes, then waiting in line for over an hour to get in.
I must admit I hate stuff like Chasing Liberty and the "PG" ilk. They're lame and have absolutely no edge. I love edge. This movie has so much edge it almost cuts you in half.
I am amazed nobody's mentioned the funniest early scene in the movie. After Our Hero finds out his new girl is a porn star, he starts hallucinating. He imagines she's doing his parents! This was so funny/sick that my friend who went with me hid in my armpit, his hands not quite covering his eyes. The entire audience screamed, then laughed, then screamed, and then laughed again.
This happened again later. Most of the test audience I saw this with enjoyed it. No, it isn't for prudes. No, it isn't for folks who are turned off by having thriller aspects in their comedies. And most especially it can be a bit too homophobic and racist. But when the curtain comes down I was happy to see how it was resolved.
Warning: Contains men coercing sex from a teen-age boy (unresolved), drugging same said teen by same said man, "lesbian" make-out scene, a section of the film where Our Hero is stripped down in public and forced to run down the street, one character watches porn constantly, threatening behavior, phallic object is carried around by Our Hero, much simulated making out.
